Alright, moving on on Friday. I covered Madison Maiden Bird from Love Is Blind Denver. And the reason I covered it is because I thought it was really bizarre that she did a Get Ready with Me video and she did an eight minute.
TikTok and a four minute TikTok, 12 minutes describing the breakup of a guy that we, the audience, dunno anything about. She hard launched him on January 1st. I read you what she said that day, calling him her future husband, just gushing about him and one month later she’s breaking up with him and giving us a, well, he broke up with her and she gives us a 12 minute video basically trying to get fans to understand that hey.
He’s the one that did look at all this stuff wrong with him, and I just thought that was a really shady video to make, and I just figured we were over and done with this. No, we weren’t, because she went and did a part three and a part four this past weekend. So if you add up all the parts of her TikTok videos, she did 23 minutes on a breakup that frankly none of us really knew much about because we didn’t know anything about him.
He’s a guy that wasn’t on the show. And she’s did. She’s doing it because she’s saying, oh, I was silenced. They were trying to silence me because she showed an email she got saying, Hey, he doesn’t want to be a part of this. Why are you bringing him into this? Don’t say anything about the relationship. And she’s just like, see, they’re coming after me and I don’t get it.
Because this really seems more like Madison is somebody that either has to have a boyfriend. And is always looking, I gotta have a boyfriend, or she just can’t be alone. Because one thing that she kept repeating in a lot of those videos is, look, I’m embarrassed guys. Look at the video that I put out on January 1st.
Don’t you think this is embarrassing for me to break up a month later? Yes. But I also think that the reason you’re doing this many videos. Is because of what you put out on January 1st, it’s like you have to justify why somebody you said was gonna be your future husband back four weeks ago has already broken up with you.
So you have to tell us, well, this is why. Look at our relationship, look at what he did. Look at all these wrong things that he did, and I’m sorry. I think that’s so shady and such a low blow. And I also think it’s very hard, and I know a lot of people seem to think like, oh, you’re just coming after her because of she’s a woman or something like that, and just like.
What are you even talking about? Every story in reality TV that I deal with is a case by case basis. Sometimes the men in this franchise, I expose them and sometimes it’s the women who do something that I put out there negatively. But for those who are saying, I’m coming after her, or this is bullshit that I’m covering this for her, I, I mean, I would just remind you, do you remember when I had Jenny Alexandra on from Joe Millionaire?
Who was involved in one of the biggest sex trafficking trial cases we’ve ever seen. How about when I had Meredith Phillips on one of the early bachelorettes who literally came on my podcast and for the first time over 10 years later from when she was on the show, she admits that she was sexually assaulted on set.
How about when I put Kelsey on, the one who used to date Nate from Gabby windy season? Remember she said, I dated this guy for a year and a half. He never even told me he had a daughter. I let her share her story. How about quote unquote Beth, remember her, the one who dated Aaron Clancy and what she had to deal with with Aaron Clancy.
How about Taylor Hale, the winner of BB 24, who came on my podcast and for the first time told everybody she shared her sexual assault story publicly for the first time. So to diminish it and say, oh, you’re just bagging on women. I mean, come on. You’re factually incorrect considering, and those are just ones off the top of my head.
The women that have come on this podcast and I’ve been a safe space for them to tell their story. I love when women can come on this podcast and tell their story, knowing they have a space safe space here. This Madison thing just got under my skin because she’s going on and on and on about it. And then you read some of the comments.
Under her TikTok or under her Instagram. It’s just an echo chamber of people telling her, you go girl, you’re a girl’s girl. And I’m just like, this is bizarre. Like we barely knew this guy. He wasn’t somebody from the show. She did not need four posts and 23 minutes of a breakup story. That really didn’t tell us that he was all that bad of a guy.
Look, I’m not defending this guy. I’m sure he did some things in the relationship that she didn’t like. But my gosh, two more this weekend, she’s probably not even done. She’s probably got part five and six loaded and ready to go. It’s like Madison, take the L on this one you got broken up with. That’s fine.
You don’t have to tell us in four different videos, totaling 23 minutes while you put on your makeup how bad of a guy he is. Or look at what he did. And it’s just like to me, and I listened to all 23 minutes ’cause I wasn’t just gonna come on here. And criticize her without saying, I listened to everything you had to say, Madison.
And my advice is, you should have just said, jump the gun early. Probably will never hard launch another guy again until I know it’s serious. But things change. Relationships happen. Things happen in relationships, and I’m moving on. I wish him the best and go from there. We didn’t need 23 minutes on this breakup, and anybody that says they think that this is suitable for what he did, again, like I said on Friday, if this was physical abuse, emotional abuse, verbal abuse, and this guy was literally a threat to women across the Denver area or anywhere, I’d say, yes, absolutely tell your story, Madison.
But it was just a guy who honestly, listening to those 23 minutes just didn’t seem very into her. Recorded you this long message. And then I, he he sounded like at some point it sounded like, sorry, my voice message started playing. It honestly sounded like he was into her at first, and that’s why she launched what she did on the first and said, this guy’s me, my future husband.
And then as stuff went on, maybe he just lost interest and maybe he was just like, I don’t know. This influencer stuff isn’t for me. That’s perfectly fine to say that, and I just don’t understand why she needed four parts in 23 minutes to talk about this breakup. And the more I realized it, the more I said yeah, the more she said, I’m embarrassed, guys.
I’m embarrassed of what I released on January 1st. Exactly. Why she’s releasing four parts in 23 minutes. Because she has to justify in her mind, she has to justify. I’m telling her, no you don’t. You can just say, Hey. Things didn’t work out. I just, I’m so put off by this story and the way she handled this guy and nobody knows what this guy’s name is.
I mean, people in their inner, in her inner circle and his inner circle clearly do, but this guy’s name isn’t out there publicly. I’d be really curious to see what this guy has to say about her, because she’s gotten 23 minutes on her platform to absolutely trash this guy who just seemingly liked her. In the beginning they were dating, they were having fun, and it seems like he just lost interest.
There’s, there’s, it’s perfectly fine. It doesn’t mean he’s a horrible human being. Could he have communicated better? I’m sure, and I’m sure he would say the same thing about her. Just seems really weird to go on and on about this guy in four part tiktoks regarding their breakup about a guy that, I’m sorry, the love is blind fan base, which is how we even know this woman.
Doesn’t really follow all that much because we don’t even know the guy’s name, so, so weird. Alright, the Muppet ratings are in from last Wednesday night. I told you on Friday, all the tweets I’m seeing in my for you page were just absolutely loving this and it was very positive. It was like, this is exactly what we remember the Mamba Show as.
You can definitely do some of this. Let me just say. Wednesday night. Looking at the ratings here last Wednesday night in the 18 to 49 demo, it was the most watched show on network tv. It didn’t have the most viewers. Overall, it ended up having 3 million viewers, and there were shows that got 4.34 million, 5.75, 5.55, 4.6.
So it was like the fifth most watched show viewers wise, but in the important 18 to 49 demo, highest rating. Point five two and a seven share. No other show on Wednesday night had more than a six share on Wednesday night. So this proves, I don’t know if they’re gonna have one weekly, but this is, this proves that you can maybe do a show like this monthly, every couple months, maybe five or six shows a year, and bring back the Muppet show.
The audience is there. They showed you it on Wednesday night. Now, if you had a weekly show. I Are those numbers gonna continue to grow? Are they gonna stay the same? Are they gonna go down? Maybe if you did it weekly for eight to 10 weeks it would go down, but spacing out and doing once a month on Disney Plus for the Muppet show, I think it would work.
